"1" Change You'd Make For Spidey 3!

Extended Sandman screen-time. Including a decent ending, MORE action between Sandman and Spider-Man (and not Sand-Monster and Spider-Man) and extended versions of both armored truck and subway battle.

D!
 
the change i would make is a better spidey 3, recap the whole movie, respect the chacaters,the story line, everything! like in the comics
 
Make me director :).

Or replace the dancing and jazz bar scene with actual plot.
 
I would've had Sandman crush that reporter at the end. She was the proverbial last drop.
 
Take out Peter's dance scene with Gwen (only make them kiss), and insert a scene of symbiote Spidey fighting robbers instead.
 
The total absence of Spidersense, which was present in the first two.
 
The mask thing (which bothers me also) isn't just a problem in Spider-Man 3, it's a problem in 1+2 also. I think it stems from the studio wanting to get their money's worth for paying Tobey Maguire so much.

Yeah, the Spidey/Sandman battles were the most disappointing, particularly the subway battle which I thought was going to be amazing and was over in thirty seconds.
 
if i could change one thing, it would be more "battle withiness" yeah i made that word up...so? or Venom saying 'We' refering to himself, and him saying the line that was in the novel





"im poison to you spider-man, im venom" only with we's


take your pic...lol
 
The one change I would make would be not killing off venom in the end, not killing venom off at all.

I can even remember that Avi Arad said once that the subway battle was going to be better than the Doc Ock train fight. LOL. Best joke ever :woot:

D!
 
Im torn between 2 also. My 2 are:
1. More Venom
2. Spiderman and Sandman don't "make-up" at the end. Let them fight to the death! Seriously, that was so cheesy.

If I really had to choose, one, I guess I'd choose 2, because I'd be more satisfied with Sandman and Spidey fighting to solve their conflicts than having Venom in the movie more.
 
in the nightclub scen instead of the dancing have the corrupted pete cause a fistfight between gwen and mj

and then betty brant comes in and fights too...and a tub of mud comes outta nowere...lol

That's funny, I remember him using it in the crane scene.......the first fight scene with Harry though......I understand that.
 
Find a better way than crappy dancing to show Peter's "bad side"
 
give a decent explanation as to why his damn butler didn't tell him the truth for the past 5 years.

The same reason parents don't tell a seven year old how babies are made.

My change: Throw in a montage symbiote Spider-Man doing what the pictures showed him to be doing. Then have the little strut after that.
 
i'd get rid of kirsten dunst...i'm sick of seeing her mug on-screen
 
If I could do something all enocmpassing, I would rework the entire beginning of the third act of the movie so it wasn't so rushed.

But that is cheating because it would include:

1) A slower and better developed rationale for Sandman and Venom to team-up. My suggestion is that Sandman doesn't want to. But there would have been a scene of him visiting his daughter now in the hospital while she is asleep (no diaologue) and sand-vanishing when her mother walks into the room. Outside on the street Brock makes the offer and Sandman refuses, because he says "I'm not a killer." And then Brock turns into Venom and it happens like in the movie and then he leaps up to the hospital window under his daughter's room and threatens that he'll pay a visit at some point to her and "Flint can't stop him."

2. The newscasting is less specific and cheesy. The news simply doesn't have information on the black figure and says a "young woman has been spotted in peril but we have been unable to identify her," and there would be no web-lettering by Venom.

3. After Peter leaves Harry looks into his mirror and sees his father appear. And he has a huge argument with the spectre of his father. And his father calls him weak again and says that if he wants to truly be like him and not be the weakling Harry Osborn he'll watch Spider-Man die and Harry just stares back.

That way we give Flint ample motivation to work with Brock, less cheese and no butler being forced in.
 
The reason the butler never told him is because thats not what butlers do and there was never a situation where telling him would be a lifesaving thing to do. Even if watching Harry's obsession with SM made him uncomfortable, its still not his place to interfere. It makes sense for him to tell him finally in such a dire circumstance as SM needing his help to save their friend.
 
Substitute the alleyway sequence for the far-superior video game encounter between Brock and Flint. It makes far more sense for Marko to be forced into helping Venom because his daughter is being held as ransom rather than on a random whim that compromises the character they wasted all that time trying to establish.
 
^^ I really think that is probably the weakest point in the movie.

I would have preferred to see a small moment after Aunt May visited Peter of Flint watching his daughter in a hospital bed, implying she got worse and Flint putting the locket back in his hand saying "I'm sorry." Then the door opens and his ex-wife is there but Flint is gone and she notices the locket.

Cut to him five floors or so below on the street next to the hospital reassembling from sand. That is when Eddie Brock in black duds (similar to the ones Pete wore without the emo hair). He says "I'm sorry about you're problems" and Flint is like "You know nothing about my problems."

Brock would grab him by the shoulder and say "I know if you helped me kill the spider, both our problems are solved." Flint turns and says "Not interested," half laughing. Brock pulls him back saying "That wasn't an offer." And begins transforming in a crumpled form as the symbiote takes him over in about 10 seconds and his head pops into frame with the Venom roar.

Flint freaks out and sand pushes him away but Venom breaks the sand arm in half and jumps across to the opposite building. He then makes his same offer as in the movie. And then the symbiote crawls back over his face and jumps to the hospital right under the only lit room, Flint's daughter's room.

Venom then says "Or I could pay a visit to Penny. Anytime I want and I can...anytime." Cut to a reluctant and defeated looking Flint's face.

That would have been the one thing I changed if I could.

The only other thing I feel is worth bothering making a point about would be after Peter leaves that Harry turns back on the TV and sees MJ dangling in danger and looks concerned and conflicted. He then hears his father's voice and turns to the mirror and has his father calling him a weakling. "MJ is innocent. They ARE my friends." And Norman says "You're weak. If you want to be really like me just watch them die. They don't love you Harry. Be like your father." And cut to Harry looking very torn.

Then his coming to help Pete would have worked MUCH better.

Harry's a grown man. He should be able to accept that his father was a bad person (which was implied through his neglection of his son and the fact that he was the Green Goblin). All the angst and rage that he built up over the years because he didn't know could have avoided alot of conflict.
 
Would have let Raimi do his thing without the pressure from producers and crazed fans.

Spider-man 1: fans help Spidey against Goblin. Spider-man 2: fans save Spidey after fighting Doctorpuss on the train. Spider-man 3: fans are annoying kids making cheesy comments during the final fight.
 
I would have changed the Butler scene.

For a start, I would have removed the Butler. I then would have had Aunty May go over and tell Harry that she knew Peter needed help in his life, sort of alluding to her knowing he's Spider-man, and that she can't get Peter to open up to her and thinks Harry needs to be more of a friend and then have her kidnapped by Venom after leaving Harry's instead of Mary Jane.

I also don't think Harry should have accepted that Peter never killed Norman before entering the final battle.
